364 results about "Context model" patented technology

A context model (or context modeling) defines how context data are structured and maintained (It plays a key role in supporting efficient context management). It aims to produce a formal or semi-formal description of the context information that is present in a context-aware system. In other words, the context is the surrounding element for the system, and a model provides the mathematical interface and a behavioral description of the surrounding environment.

Video frame encoding and decoding

A video frame arithmetical context adaptive encoding and decoding scheme is presented which is based on the finding, that, for sake of a better definition of neighborhood between blocks of picture samples, i.e. the neighboring block which the syntax element to be coded or decoded relates to and the current block based on the attribute of which the assignment of a context model is conducted, and when the neighboring block lies beyond the borders or circumference of the current macroblock containing the current block, it is important to make the determination of the macroblock containing the neighboring block dependent upon as to whether the current macroblock pair region containing the current block is of a first or a second distribution type, i.e., frame or field coded.

System and method for developing, updating, and using user device behavioral context models to modify user, device, and application state, settings and behavior for enhanced user security

Security is enhanced for a user of a mobile device by monitoring and controlling resource usage. Usage information associated with a mobile device is collected. The collected information is used to build a usage model for a user of the mobile device that describes a set of contexts in which the mobile device is used. User activity on the device is monitored and the model is consulted to determine a first time after which it will be acceptable for a battery of the mobile device to fall below a threshold charge level. Based on the monitored activity, a prediction of a second time is made for when the battery will fall below the threshold charge level. If the second time is before or a predetermined amount of time before the first time, usage of the battery is reduced, else, usage of the battery is not reduced.

Lossless Data Compression Using Adaptive Context Modeling

The present invention is a system and method for lossless compression of data. The invention consists of a neural network data compression comprised of N levels of neural network using a weighted average of N pattern-level predictors. This new concept uses context mixing algorithms combined with network learning algorithm models. The invention replaces the PPM predictor, which matches the context of the last few characters to previous occurrences in the input, with an N-layer neural network trained by back propagation to assign pattern probabilities when given the context as input. The N-layer network described below, learns and predicts in a single pass, and compresses a similar quantity of patterns according to their adaptive context models generated in real-time. The context flexibility of the present invention ensures that the described system and method is suited for compressing any type of data, including inputs of combinations of different data types.

A wireless communication system employs a method and apparatus for providing voice recognition service to a wireless communication device. Voice recognition information (e.g., a context model and voice training parameters) is generated by a wireless device user and stored in a memory (e.g., a SIM card) of the wireless device to form one portion of a voice recognition processing engine. Another portion of the voice recognition processing engine (e.g., a voice recognition processor and operating software therefor) is implemented in a wireless system infrastructure of the wireless communication system. The wireless device transmits the voice recognition information to the system infrastructure preferably upon request for such information by the system infrastructure. The system infrastructure then uses both portions of the voice recognition processing engine to provide voice recognition service to the wireless device and its user during operation of the wireless device.

InactiveUS20080243518A1Easy to calculateExpand the range of equipmentSpeech analysisFrequency spectrumWaveform shaping
A system and method for the improved compression of audio signals and the restoration and enhancement of audio recordings missing high frequency content. In the preferred embodiment the different context models are applied to increase the compression ratio of spectral information, quantization coefficients and other information. Context models and arithmetic compression are used for final compression. The time-frequency amplitude envelope and degree of tonality parameters are extracted from the low frequency component. An estimate of the high frequency component is performed by applying a multiband distortion effect, waveshaping, to the low frequency content. Control of tonality is achieved by varying the number of bands within the multiband framework. A filterbank is used that roughly shapes the reconstructed high frequency component according to an estimation of the most probable shape.
